Important [READ BEFORE APPLYING FOR A MEDIA RANK]

Do you have a Twitch or YouTube channel and are interested in a special rank? Are you looking to acquire perks which will help you create content more easily?
If you found yourself in anything written above or just want to stand out, you have come to the right place!

► General Requirements

Regardless of which rank you want to apply for, you must meet the following requirements:

• Being a member of our Discord server
• Good behaviour
  • Even if you get accepted, your rank may get removed if you display rude or otherwise inappropriate behaviour
• Having your channel connected to your Discord account
  • Here is a helpful article explaining how to do this (see Setting Up Your Connections & Connection Details)
• No fabricated statistics (e.g. subscribers)
• Strong knowledge of our rules
  • Even if you get accepted, your rank may get removed if you break the rules
• Having our server's IP address clearly visible both in your content and on your channel

These requirements are very easy to fulfil, so please double-check (or triple-check, quadruple-check, quintuple-check...) whether you meet them before applying.

► YouTube Rank Requirements

In addition to the general requirements, you must meet the following requirements to apply for the YouTube rank:

• 250+ views per video
• 3+ released videos containing PikaNetwork content in the past month
• 1000+ subscribers
• Active channel (3+ videos a month)
• 5+ minute long videos
  • We do not offer the YouTube rank to creators focused on short-form content

If you only want to stream on PikaNetwork, the following requirements apply to you instead (the general requirements still apply):

• 3+ streams performed on PikaNetwork in the past month
• 1000+ subscribers
• Active channel (weekly streams)
• An average of 30+ stream viewers
  • Having a live view counter displayed on your stream is recommended

► Twitch Rank Requirements

Since we usually have very few Twitch streamers, the requirements for them are much easier to reach (the general requirements still apply):

• 3+ streams performed on PikaNetwork in the past month
• 250+ followers
• Active channel (weekly streams)
• An average of 10+ stream viewers
  • Having a live view counter displayed on your stream is recommended

► Application Process

Bad applications can get denied by staff members. This happens regularly and is not tied to a specific schedule.
The Media Manager(s) review Twitch and YouTube rank applications twice a month during Application Intervals.
Each Interval lasts 5 days, from the 15th to the 20th and from the 30th to the 5th (including both the starting and ending days of each interval).

Unless something unexpected occurs, your application will always be handled during the upcoming Interval from the moment you submit an application.

• For example, if you submit your application on the 20th of August, it will be reviewed between the 30th of August and the 5th of September

If you submit an application during an Interval, it's going to be reviewed during the next Interval after that.

• For example, if you submit your application on the 5th of September, it will be reviewed between the 15th and 20th of September.

Please do not ask anyone to check or handle your application! This system makes it easy for you to know approximately when it will be handled.
Asking only makes you look immature and can get you denied for bad behaviour if you go too far.
